Full Version: Research: Christian sex better than Kama Sutra

Contrary to popular notions of Christians as sexual prudes, 15 years of study have convinced a psychologist and professor that "knowing" your spouse "in the biblical sense" can be scientifically verified as a fulfilling and spiritual experience.

Dr. Chuck MacKnee, who teaches psychology at Trinity Western University, a school associated with the Evangelical Free Church near Vancouver, Canada, began studying sexuality in Christian couples in the 1990s at the University of British Columbia.

MacKnee told The Vancouver Sun that while many people assume biblical writers used the phrase "knowing" a person as a bashful way of saying "having sex," he believes the writers and translators were tapping into the uniquely intimate sense of knowing God that can be found within married, Christian sexuality.

"In sexuality, we're looking for connection and fulfillment in another person," MacKnee was quoted as saying in Faith Today. "But this is really the same reason we search for God. … The Hebrew word for sexual intimacy means literally 'to know', as in 'Adam knew Eve'. Yet David used the same word for God when he said in Psalm 139: 'O Lord, you have searched me and you know me.'"

So how did David have sex with a genderless entity? I'm curious to know if tentacles were involved.

This just in: Christians are still sexual prudes.

Christians have the Missionary position named after them.

Hindus get sexual positions that require turning a page around to get a clue.

historically sexually speaking Christian nations have been the biggest prudes and most sexually repressed people, although that did lead to some "interesting" underground movements.

I would have to question the size of his test group, and there doesn't appear to have been a control group. 5 couples is really not enough to tell if this is an isolated phenominom or a social trend.

To quote House MD, everyone lies. Christians moreso than anyone.

There are as wide a variety of Christians as there are any other subset of society.

and five couples is a very small study.

Interesting point about the Hebew.

I'm guessing those who've commented in this thread already never bothered to read song of Solomon (then again there's probably the majority of "christians" haven't bothered to read it either)

I believe tentacles were widely used in the Hentai version of the Old Testament.

I have read it several times WilV...doesn't affect what i said one way or the other.

McKnee's research project, according to the Sun, focused on a group of Christians, five men and five women (including two evangelical pastors), who had peak spiritual experiences related to their sexual lives.


Nice research project. I wonder where he learned the fundamentals of running an experiment. "Yeah, I think I'll ask a couple of my Christian zealot... er, um, friends if they like it missionary better than things they might learn from the Kama Sutra."

There's no control group, and the group he *did* have is a numerically insignificant and inaccurate cross section of the church he throws cash at on Sunday.

Research? Sounds more like scientific propaganda for Christians to me...
DragonKing9
do they have anything but propaganda?

Donkey Kong, the answer is rather obvious.

Yog-Sothoth! He got some booty from the Church! They were just confused...

You know what? Christians are the most sexually stressed people in history. I bet once the cork pops out it could create a lot of illusions.
